King Edgar



I'm always fascinated by the thought of what would happen if e stepped out of our time into another. London is one of the few places that has a record of substantial human activity for thousands of years. 1200 years ago, King Edgar gifted land near here, perhaps the very same as I am standing on - to his knights who undertook three tasks. Devonshire Square is the location of this memorial; for a hollow sculpture this has an amazing amount of life.

I agree with you... the sculptor managed to capture some life and movement there... sweet pic.

I love the sculpture. Fantastic. I also am fascinated by the idea of time and how history continues to live with us. London is a great place to feel the presence of those who came before.
